Itzhak perlman - Chaconne_Partita No 2 for Violin - Bach

I do not own the copyright of this record SUBSCRIBE
One of my favorite perfomance of the chaconne
Listen to the Josef Suk perfomance here: • Josef Suk - Chaconne_P...

[@ohtayukiho6444]

バイオリン１本で表現しているとは思えない奥行きと広がり、弦の響きの絡み合いはまさにバッハそのものの世界です。 人々の苦悩のはざまをこれほどまでに見事に表していることに驚愕します。 聖書を読み進むような荘厳な世界の広がりの旋律は畏敬の念をもって膝まづく魂の嗚咽も見えない音符として組み入られていることを感じます。

[@julioklastornick3642]

"On one stave, for a small instrument, the man writes a whole world of the deepest thoughts and most powerful feelings. If I imagined that I could have created, even conceived the piece, I am quite certain that the excess of excitement and earth-shattering experience would have driven me out of my mind." - Johannes Brahms about Bach's Chaconne

[@pkrones]

Julio Klastornick what a wonderful quote. And so true. Especially when played by Perlmann! Thanks.

[@wendymyers3182]

Julio Klastornick of course as u can see,,I'm a woman but most woman also play it like funeral music! now I'm aware that Back composed the Chaccone due to the passing of his beloved wife..but most women don't get it...it must be played with a man's heart. A man's grief, but also a man's hope of healing and getting through his grief!! Am I making sense?? Good day All,,and GOD BLESS!

[@pkrones]

Wendy Myers I didn't say, when I first saw your comment, but your observstion is striking, different and true. Although some do question the personal and intimate quality, given the constraints in music at Bach's time, it surely IS a profoundly human work. And I am struck by how you, as a woman, so clearly make that discrimination. Thanks.

[@wendymyers3182]

Wow,,Peter!! Im so rarley used to receiving positive feedback...thank You,Sir..peace upon You and ur house...wendy

[@adamdonovan5633]

The music of J. S. Bach is, in my view, one of the treasures of civilization-proof, should it be needed, that the human experiment has been worth it after all. The majesty of the Sonatas and Partitas has been offered up by generations of profoundly gifted virtuosi. Bur Perlman's playing here strikes this listener as transcendent, full of a kind of passion and rich masculine elegance-a sonic aurora borealis. This is playing to make you rejoice to have ears. We are in double debt: to Bach for these sublime architectures, and to Perlman for a lifetime of dedication to a craft that lifts Bach and us up off the page-up where we belong.

[@yairalkon4944]

There are countless intepretations of the chaconne, all of them vastly different in their emotional color and intention. With so many great artists attemting this beast of a piece, and on so many insturments, I really find it impossible to decide which is my favorite. But the massive emotional quake I experience l every time Perelman reaches the great peek shortly after <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="387">6:27</a>, is completely unparalleled by anything else musical I've ever heard. At best, I can only hope to vaguely allude to it with my interpretation and playing of the piece. Perlman is an incredible artist! And Bach is a legendary one.

None of us would want such suffering as was commonplace in Bach's time but who of us in this pampered (Western) world in which we live now could express grief and sorrow, as well as joy and jubilation as he did.

I really admire Mr. Perlman and his exquisite way of play...it is such as touching heaven feeling. It was an honor sea this man ay the Avery Fisher Hall, he is muy favorite violinist ever. Thanks.

[@sina8883]

I don't know how he maintains such perfect intonation playing so many chords on the violin. It is absolutely flawless, note after note, chord after chord. It is not an easy task. Amazing.

[@TheNumbuh121]

Maybe he gave himself the opportunity in the best way he could, using whatever resource was at hand.

[@goldenautumn3073]

He is a Master!

[@keithramsell9955]

As one who too has mastered this mighty work, I can tell you how: it is such a privelege to be allowed to attempt it, one cannot POSSIBLY betray the mighty composer by introducing the slightest error. I believe Bach once wrote "I did not write this music: I only held the pen." I can tell you, on a concert platform, with an audience listening in silent wonderment, it is not I who am playing: I'm merely allowed to hold the instrument. In 1958, as a young student, Beverly Nicholls wrote in the May edition of "Woman" magazine: "Bach spoke with the voice of God: Keith Ramsell is his young disciple." I expected to be mocked next day by my fellow-students - not a bit! We all felt exactly the same way.

[@CB-kt7qd]

If i have to choose my favourite version of chaconne it will be the one played by Perlman. Although all my respects to Heifetz, Hahn, Stern and others...

Arthur Grumiaux for me, on video avialable with that violin of his. on KZbin rather than his Philips recording,

[@Patrick_H.]

We share the same tastes in violinists. However, as far as I am concerned Heifetz owns this piece. Everyone else sounds mechanical in comparison. And it plays it at a speed that none living or dead could match.

[@tallisrocktube]

Itzhak Perlman has the most amazing ability to make it sound like 1-2-3-4- violins are playing each voice independently..Absolutely a Master and best version ever.

[@VesiustheBoneCruncher]

Perlman is the tone king. Others bring other things to the table, Vengerov imagination, dynamic control and a cohesive interpretation. Hahn control and phrasing ... the list goes on. But good grief, Perlman’s tone is vast. VAST. The bow control is obvious but that left hand is a vice. As clear an example that I know of why *some* tension is good and indeed needed!

[@rubbishcomments7269]

Nice!! Couldn’t have said it better

[@marshhag9545]

I wish I had meaty mitts like Perlman. Everyone's told me my whole life that my long skinny fingers were perfect for the violin, but I feel Perlman has the true advantage with his long AND meaty fingers. Better/easier tension on the string I feel.

[@juliafreitas8362]

At the beginning when I fisrt hear this song I didn't like it. But after a while, I couldn't stop hearing it. And then when I found out Perlman's version, I'm gonna say to y'all: there's no other piece for violin solo such perfect as it is. Chaconne by Bach definitely came from heaven inspiration and that's why it's so wonderful. And Perlman's interpretation is just how I wondered: calm and soft, wild and strong when it needs to be. The combination of these two results in heavenly sounds to our ears.

[@shinyasistina3614]

J. S. Bach is the most convincing material proof of the existence of God.

[@stephenjablonsky1941]

It is quite possible that only the magic of music gives us the opportunity to experience perfection

[@dakotalee6990]

This is far and beyond my favourite piece of music ever written, though I'm not dogmatic about the interpretation. I find that the piece itself contains so much depth that it can withstand a variety of interpretations. In fact, it almost requires multiple interpretations for you to begin to recognize how much is contained within it. It is, I think, the closest thing to perfection the human race has managed to capture.

[@arturogouveia125]

J. S. Bach é a prova material mais convincente da existência de Deus.

Is that a violin or a church organ?? Just astonishingly perfect intonation. To archive this pristine, cristal-clear, uniform sound at a slightly slower-than-usual tempo isn't easy. It really sounds like played by an "infinite bow".

This was recorded when Perlman was in his prime, 1986/87, the pictures in this clip showing a much older Perlman. I have listened to many, many recordings of the Chaconne, and they are all very different: Perlman, Maxim Vengerov, Kristof Barati (one of the most talented violinists to emerge in the last few years), Ray Chen, Heifetz, Julia Fisher (very soft version), Natan Milstein (1954/56), Hilary Hahn (very nice recording if you prefere a slightly softer version), David Garrett (yes, he did record this when he was very young), Joshua Bell, Zino Francescetti (aprox 1950), Henryk Szeryng (year?), Janine Jansen, Viktoria Mullova (don't like her interpretation), Yehudi Menuhin (live at Carnegie Hall 1940, perhaps not so good in that recording) and George Enesco (1940). Personal taste, but I really like the Perlman and the Heifetz recordings, the Kristof Barati version and Hilary Hahn version are also nice. Again personal taste.
